Octomom: I was drugged when I agreed to 12 embryos

Nadya Suleman, better known as the “Octomom,” told CNN Thursday she was drugged when she agreed to have 12 embryos implanted.

She blames her doctor Michael Kamrava for asking her to consent to the procedure while she was under the influence of several drugs, including Valium.

“He wrote something, he gave it to me to sign,” Suleman said on a CNN show Thursday night. “I signed it, and I didn’t read it.”

From CNN:

The California woman said she did not mean to have eight children in January 2009, in addition to the six she already had. But while she admitted she did want more children, she insisted she was in no condition to understand a form Kamrava put in front of her before implanting 12 embryos.

Kamrava had his license suspended in 2008 for “gross negligence” related to Suleman’s insemination.
